ABSTRACT:
Simulated bamboo fabricated from thin walled metallic stock material, the stock material preferably being stock tubing. Tubing is cold worked to impart realistic culm and node characteristics. The tubing is preferably formed into serial or repeating sections, each characterized by gradual, progressive curvature at each end of the respective section to simulate natural bamboo culms. A realistic node is worked into the tubing between adjacent sections. The invention may be regarded as the resultant elongate simulated bamboo article or, alternatively, an article of manufacture such as a chair incorporating the resultant elongate simulated bamboo article.
